Chassis:
The first of two Ascari A410s built, chassis 001 made its first appearance in the 2000 Silverstone 500 km race. It was used throughout the 2000 and 2001 seasons and received regular updates and upgrades that greatly improved the performance. At Le Mans in 2001, it was driven by Werner Lupberger, Ben Collins and Harri Toivonen. It was qualified in 18th position on the grid but failed to finish the race with a fuel feed problem. Later in the year, chassis 001 was driven to the types only victory. In 2002 and 2003, it was raced as the Ascari KZR-1 but with little success. It is seen here during the Spa round of the 2001 Sportscar Champsionship where it started the race in fifth and finished a credible fourth.
